What "JC" wants anyone around at 77, or 80? Proles start breaking down. Knee replacements. Hip replacements. Cataract surgery. Open heart surgery, like Wendy, and one of my neighbors had, in their early 70s. And it isn't just the cost of treatment, it's the downtime for recovery. What "JC" will take that "burden"?


Now you're arriving at the conclusion as to *why* we don't have Defined Benefit plans any more: No company can afford to pay past employees forever and ever, often 20 years+ after they've stopped working.

What is your solution?

The solution(s) are NOT

-"Universal free healthcare"
-"Medicare for all"

...or whatever communist takeover scheme is. Want free healthcare? Then The Proles are going to get their diet and exercise habits dictated to them.

That means your bloodwork will be taken regularly. Your VO2 Max recorded. All that stuff. And if you fall outside what the stats say "healthy" is for your age, you get put on a mandatory diet and exercise program.

The bottom line: Unless you're willing to sacrifice significant chunks of your personal freedom, then the Communism of Mamdani and the democrats won't work.
